Messrs R H. Greg and Company are having a ware-house built in Tib Street, from designs by Mr Whitaker, and Messrs Taylor and Williams are the builders. The basement is externally of vermiculated stonework. The first storey is of good tooled ashlar, with a dentelled cornice. The upper part of the warehouse will be of best brick with handsome stone quoins, und all the windows will have moulded stone architraves. It is intended to place an elaborate stone cornice at the top. The whole is fireproof and of good strength, and I understand that the cost cannot be less than £8,000.[The Civil Engineer and Architects Journal. January, 1846]
